This can be very stressful for the students, their entire year of preparation can go into vain. So to avoid this kind of thing, here we suggest you check the following items.

2. Identity Card:  You must carry a government issued Identity card. Make sure the name mentioned in the ID card is exactly the same as mentioned in the admit card, if it is not the same or there is some spelling mistake then you must provide a court statement regarding the same.
